Bluefors, a Finnish cryogenics company focused on the quantum computing industry, and Physics World are jointly presenting a free quantum computing-centered webinar open to the public. The live "Next Generation of Cryogenics: Tailored for Quantum Technologies" will be presented at 3 p.m. BST/5 p.m. EET on July 2, 2020. It...

In CERN’s superconducting equipment testing hall, an innovative transmission line has set a new record for the transport of electricity. The 60-meter long link has transported a total of 54,000 amperes (54 kA, or 27 kA in either direction). The line has been developed for the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC), the...

Using two flat-top diamonds and a lot of pressure, scientists at Argonne National Laboratory (CSA CSM) have forced a magnetic crystal into a spin liquid state, which may lead to insights into high temperature superconductivity and quantum computing.

A team of researchers from CERN’s Atomic Spectroscopy and Collisions Using Slow Antiprotons (ASACUSA) collaboration have taken experimental equipment from CERN to the Paul Scherrer Institute near Zurich to create a theoretically predicted, but never before verified, exotic atom and made first measurements of how it absorbs and resonates with...

Households in Scotland could be using “100% green” hydrogen for cooking and heating if plans for a new world-first gas network are approved. Under the proposal from gas distribution network company SGN, an initial 300 homes in Levenmouth will have access to clean hydrogen within two to three years.

Researchers suggest the coldest material in the universe could reveal the presence of dark matter particles. In a new paper published early May in the journal Physical Review Letters, a group of Spanish scientists suggests magnetometers made using Bose-Einstein Condensates could be used to detect exotic spin-dependent forces. Bose-Einstein Condensates...
